GROUND FLOOR

From the moment you step over the threshold, it’s clear Beechwood offers a great combination of high quality craftmanship with excellent proportions, emphasizing space and light. There is a wonderful flow to the ground floor, with the sitting room, dining room and large kitchen and breakfast room all able to be joined or separated off as required giving great flexibility. A generous office offers an ideal space to work from home, but could also function well as a playroom for those with young children. The kitchen and breakfast room features a large island unit and when combined with the delightful dining area with lantern roof above, it is the perfect space for entertaining guests.

• What is your favourite room of the house and why?

We absolutely love the lounge and the master bedroom for a few reasons; the scale of them - with so much space to move around, both rooms are calming and relaxing. The light - the front of the house gets the sun all day long and the light at the start and end of the day is so beautiful, I love looking out of the window and seeing the beautiful countryside opposite. The kitchen is also such a fabulous entertaining space with places to cook, lounge, eat, and dance around after a long week!

• Who do you think would be the next ideal owner?

The house is super versatile, so it would suit lots of different setups. A couple who like to have a lot of living / breakout space for different hobbies (e.g. media room, gym etc) and enjoy hosting people for the weekend. A family, who can each have the luxury of having their own room and en-suite, or a multi-generational living setup. The third floor is perfect for those relatives you want close, but not too close!

• What do you love most about the house and why?

The living space really sold the house. All of the rooms are huge (even the bathrooms) so everywhere feels really spacious, even with large furniture. The neighbours are also lovely and are very helpful. We have absolutely loved living here!

• What do you love about the local community?

There really is such a sense of community here. There are so many local, independent businesses in the town, including our favourite coffee shop, Bunce’s. Everyone is very friendly, there are amazing schools, beautiful walks right on the doorstep, excellent restaurants and pubs, as well as easy access to supermarkets and the post office for your everyday needs.

• How easy is it to commute from here?

Super easy. The transport links are great. We commute to London 3 times a week and Bedwyn and Pewsey stations are only a 10-minute drive away (Bedwyn is free parking too!). You also have Swindon’s super-fast train line and Hungerford to choose from.

• What made you choose this property over others that were available at the time?

We looked for a few months but it was love at first sight with Beechwood. It’s rare to get a property of this size (4,500 sq ft) in such a great location. We loved that it had beautiful rural views, but was still close enough to walk into town for a coffee / to run errands.”*
